Should Political Parties Require Gender Parity by Law?

What this debate covers

“Should Political Parties Require Gender Parity by Law?” (“¿Deben los partidos políticos tener paridad de género por ley?” in Spanish) is a two-sided Spanish debate on personal & public identities — both arguments written out in full. An Argentine political scientist defends quotas as the only way her country reached parity in Congress. A Spanish political philosopher worries laws that fix outcomes weaken the very equality they promote. Both want women in power. They disagree on how to get there.

Each side is written at three levels — A2 Foundations, B1 Intermediate and B2 Advanced — with a one-tap English translation, the argument vocabulary you need to reuse, and discussion questions to take into conversation.
